    Great Sunday Brunch menu, one of only a few places open on Sundays in the area. Excellent service…read morein an adorable cafe setting.

    It's always a good thing when a new generation of restauranteurs injects life into a small town…read morewith their food and flavours, and this was the case last summer when Shoebox Cantina opened up on Provost Street. While the name has a Tex-Mex vibe, the menu reflects the broad base of appeal that is often necessary to succeed in smaller communities. As such, alongside their taco menu, you'll also find the likes of steak, bacon mac and cheese, and wings. My fingers were crossed that this wouldn't be a "Jack of all trades, master of none" scenario. Showing up for a lunch with my sister, we leaned into the Tex-Mex part of the menu and ordered the carnitas fries supreme ($13) and the taco sampler ($24). They've got a sizeable rotating tap list of local beers, so I went with a rye IPA from Tatamagouche Brewing. The pork carnitas fries supreme may not have evoked the flavours of Taco Bell's famous hot mess, but they stood tall on their own. A plate of moderately thick fries somehow supported a hefty layer of saucy pork, green onions and a lime crema. Rich and savoury, I found myself wishing for some tableside hot sauce, but was too busy demolishing these to ask. My sister and I, who have both languished for years under the yoke of higher priced food in bigger cities, were very impressed by the value for dollar on this as well. The taco sampler, which is comprised of Shoebox's chicken, carnitas, fish and sweet potato tacos, was both a literal and figurative mixed plate. I appreciated that all the tacos leaned in the minimalist direction of Mexican street tacos; I'm not interested in shredded lettuce and cheddar on my tacos. My two favourites were the fish and sweet potato. The beer battered fish was airy and crisp, and the fish itself was firm and flakey; pickled red cabbage added a lightly tart counterpoint to the deep fried haddock. The sweet potato taco was comprised of ultra-crisp, hash brown-esque pieces of sweet potato, as well as some avocado to add flavour and textural contrast. Sides of a few different salsas - pico, verde and roja - let you mix and match complementing flavours. The other proteins, while far from bad, didn't live up to their potential. The carnitas was oddly heavily sauced, and lacked the crisp bits that show up in this traditional hodge podge of chopped pork. As for the chicken mole, more mole sauce and its rich, lightly chocolatey depth would have been welcome. While I'm not a dessert person, I was blown away by how good the Spanish toast ($9) was. A brioche bun got the French toast treatment and was then topped with brulée sugar, dulce de leche, whipped cream and a blueberry compote. The crisp sugar was a pleasant contrast to an otherwise soft, albeit delicious dish, while the dulce de leche will have you forgetting about maple syrup completely. On a second visit, I hit the more pub-like section of their menu and got the buttermilk fried chicken burger and upgraded the fries to the bacon Caesar salad ($16 + $2). While the sandwich was solid, there's some room for improvement. The chicken itself was a winner - really crisp batter enveloped a moist and tender piece of chicken. The toasted brioche bun held things together well, and honey and a pickle added contrasting flavours to the sandwich. In the "cons" column, some hot sauce would have been welcome to amp up the flavour and there was an awkward amount of lettuce of the sandwich. In tandem with the shape of the chicken versus that of the bun, some bites were just bun and lettuce, which is...not great. The side salad wasn't the prettiest, but it hit the spot. Iceberg lettuce took the place of romaine, and I'm not sure if the croutons were forgotten or the ultra crispy bits of bacon were doing double duty, but it worked. Shoebox Cantina is bringing a lot to New Glasgow and beyond their generally well-executed menu, they host live music events and even have a recording studio upstairs. New businesses like this are just what small towns need, and the same can be said for Shoebox and your taste buds.

    We wanted to try some moon mist flavored ice cream (a Nova Scotian flavor consisting of grape,…read morebubble gum, and banana ice cream) and was glad to find this place selling scotsburn flavors where the moon mist flavor was available. The cone was a little stale and the scoop was a standard scoop, albeit a bit on the smaller side. Not sure if there is a washroom available and didn't see store hours, but there is an ATM if you need cash. There's also ample parking in their lot. A good place to stop off of 104, especially since we were heading to Halifax from CB.

This spot has lots of parking, two walk-up serving windows, and ample outdoor picnic tables. A large digital screen displays the menu - you'll come for a scoop of hard Scotsburn ice cream, but be enticed by a plentiful list of additional options. including: ice cream sundaes, milkshakes, soft serve and a few savoury (hot dog, anyone?) items as well. The scoopers are very prescriptive and measured; great consistency. At $3 for a small (two scoops, both conservative in size) there are better value scoops elsewhere, but I appreciate the consistency and breadth of flavour choice that Corina offers. Always a reliable ice cream option!

    I was happy to see that a place serving hot food opened within walking distance of my place, and…read moreone day I popped down to pickup lunch for my wife and I. They post their soup schedule on their Facebook every week, and we lucked out because my wife has a nostalgic soft-spot for their soup of the day that day, corn chowder. Soups come with a biscuit or roll, and I doubled down on biscuits. The corn chowder was still piping hot after taking everything home and getting set up to eat. The soup was was creamy and smooth, with pops of sweetness and texture from the corn. The biscuits were buttery and lightly flaky, and while the exterior was a bit more firm and roll-like than a typical biscuit, it didn't detract from it. I had also picked up a loaf of whole wheat bread, which was light, airy and moist - great for sandwiches or on its own! On a return visit, it was another batch of soups - the daily special of clam chowder and the alway available, tomato cheddar. The clam chowder was thick and chock full of bits of clam and perfectly bite-size chunks of potato. I went for the roll this time, and it was light, smooth and great for dipping. My wife's tomato cheddar was a great, simple soup. The namesake flavours were front and centre and it had a silky mouthfeel from the added fat of the cheese, but the sauce didn't break and have actual pools of grease. For dessert, I bought a couple of their iced cinnamon rolls. They were light and airy - definitely head and shoulders above the grocery store ones - and a quick run through the microwave softened that butter/cinnamon/sugar mix wonderfully, without completely liquifying the icing. A Slice of Home is a fantastic addition to both the neighbourhood and the town as a whole, bringing thoughtfully made goods at affordable prices.

    We hired Nosh catering for our wedding back in October of 2022. We would…read moreemail back and forth to confirm numbers, what we would need to set up for them. If we needed anything extra for them to run smoothly. I have screen shots if anyone would like to see the emails back and forth. Two days before we agreed to meet up to show them the property, as it will be new to them. We agreed 5PM. at 5:30 I emailed to see if they were coming. Annie called and said she got held up and wont be able too. But everything is a go. I asked if they needed extra plates, cutlery, glasses. and She said nope all good. Email confirmation is added. The day of the wedding, they showed up at 4:30PM when dinner was suppose to be for 6PM.(Kinda Late to be coming to a place they never been before) Their stove wouldn't light (Propane) blamed it on the voltage at the venue. That we didn't give them the right voltage. Don't know how that will affect the stove but okay. They asked the venue for more knives. to be exact 60 were asked. and the venue had to take knives from other cabins that weren't involved with the wedding. Charged $250 for coffee and tea. That was never served. (blamed it that there was no set up for it) When we asked if they needed anything and they said no. Food was cold. as they had to cook everything at the venues owners main house. And take a golf glcart back and forth to serve the meal. Dinner was 2 hours late. All servers weren't in uniform. They were all confused what was happening. We have multiple people with allergies and were given a plate with their allergy on it. When I given each table what had allergies and what meal was going where. The owner is super rude. e-mails back and forth were very unprofessional. If anyone would like screen shots. please don't hesitant to contact me. As I do not want this to happen to anyone on their weddingday,As he did ruin my dinner and we had to change the timeline of our speeches, first dances and everything because of his mistakes. many people had to wait to eat at the midnight meal. as their chicken was raw. please think twice before hiring him.

There's not a ton of seating…read morewhen the patio isn't open/the weather isn't great, but we were able to snag the last table. The menu isn't big, likely due to a small kitchen, with a handful of breakfast and lunch options. Most are fairly standard diner/cafe fare, although British items like their sausage roll and Cornish pasty stuck out as unique offerings. I went with the daily special, a Caribbean-themed breakfast. The salt cod and provisions (slang for local fruit and veg) ties in well to Maritime cuisine thanks to shared colonial roots and the historical shipment of salted fish from the here to the Caribbean. It was served skillet-style (sans skillet) with chunks of potatoes, tomato, plantains, green onion and more topped with two sunny-side-up eggs. The salty hit of fish paired well with the savoury bowl and a little bit of heat added further depth. A roll on the side may or may not have ben particularly Caribbean, but it was great for sopping up the tasty sauce. My wife is an infamous fan of sausage rolls, so that was an easy choice for her. Paired up with one of the day's soup specials - roasted red pepper - it became a proper meal. The meat-to-pastry ratio was quite generous, and the light char at the end of the roll reminded me of the burnt end/open-ended egg rolls in Ottawa. Some mushy peas completed the ode to Britain. The roasted red pepper soup was velvety smooth and delicious. It's easy to see why Stone Soup Cafe is popular with both locals and tourists alike, with a little bit for everyone, and a creative flair to keep things interesting, while nailing the execution.
